Chapter 163: Gifts

"Gifts?"

"Whose gift?"

Chu Qiguang didn't know, but when the purple flames around the Circle of Fools burned, and the strangeness in it reached his eyes, he knew that the thing was called a gift.

A sharp burning pain came from his eyes, as if a flame was burning his eyes.

Almost instantaneously, Chu Qiguang felt that his eyes seemed to be completely burned to ashes, but they returned to their original state in the next moment.

At the same time, once again a secret came to his mind.

'The eyes of the seeker...... It is said that the first seekers were able to see the gifts given by the Heavenly Dao. ’

But after an unforgivable mistake, all eyes were blinded by reason. ’

Now, these eyes allow humans to see things they weren't allowed to see. ’

He looked up, and there was still a faint oil lamp in front of him, and the darkness surging around him seemed endless.

"Hasn't it changed?"

Chu Qiguang subconsciously looked at his body, and his expression suffocated.

Then he saw that his shadow reflected by the lamplight seemed to turn into a puddle of black sludge, and some kind of living creature was writhing in it.

Chu Qiguang cautiously stepped back, and the living creature seemed to feel something, and it swooped out.

Seeing this scene, Chu Qiguang's qi and blood exploded instantly, and the flesh and blood of his legs swelled for a while, and he had already dodged again and again like a phantom.

But under his extreme dodge, the living creature followed him like a shadow, and wrapped around his calf without being affected.

But the calf was obviously wrapped, but Chu Qiguang didn't have any tactile reality.

Only then did he stop to look at it, and he found that he was caught in his ...... It was a tentacle sticking out of the shadows.

The tentacles and feet were thick with small arms, blue and black, and looked strange and deformed.

After wrapping Chu Qiguang's calf, it was still twisting and curling slightly, like a real living thing.

But Chu Qiguang stretched out his hand to touch it, but found that his hand intuition passed through this tentacle, as if passing through a phantom.

Then Chu Qiguang walked around again, and found that with the change of the shadow under his feet, the tentacle had been attached to his body...... Wherever you go.

Only when he walked into the darkness that not even the light of the fire could shine a shadow did the tentacles disappear from his eyes.

"That's what it is...... Gift?" Chu Qiguang touched his eyes, and the questions in his heart came one after another.

"This tentacle ...... I guess my eyes will only be able to see after the Ring of Fools has been transformed. ”

"So this tentacle has been wrapped around my body for a long time?"

"But is this tentacle some kind of strange creature, or is it some kind of phantom, some kind of symbol?"

Chu Qiguang thought about it for a long time and didn't figure it out, so he could only walk to the desk again, pick up the book "Exploration of the Origin of the Immortal Dao" again and read it.

Just now, because of the Circle of Foolishness, he has completely forgotten the contents of the book.

Now he was about to take a good look at why he got such a pair of eyes after dedicating the contents of this book to the Circle of Fools.

After reading "Exploration of the Origin of the Immortal Dao" from beginning to end again, Chu Qiguang had already memorized all the contents of the book in his mind.

But he still didn't know why the Circle of Fools was interested in the book.

"The content of this book is nothing more than an exploration of the origin compiled from some rumors, wild histories, and the oral accounts of immortals and Taoists. ”

From the author's account, there may be some mistakes in it. ”

"Is the Circle of Fools interested in the history of the Immortal Dao?"

After thinking about it, Chu Qiguang was a little puzzled, but the Ring of Fool on his chest still exuded a slight sense of heat, and the purple flames swirled slightly outside the black void.

"Looking for another copy?"

An irrepressible curiosity surged up in Chu Qiguang's heart.

But not long after he walked to the bookshelf, a voice came from behind him: "The time is coming, the big library is about to be closed, aren't you leaving?"

Chu Qiguang turned his head to look, and saw the janitor come out of the darkness, a pale face gradually exposed to the firelight, and smiled silently at him.

Chu Qiguang subconsciously looked at the janitor's feet.

I found that the other party was in a shadow like sludge...... A total of two tentacles stretched out, one left and one right, wrapped around his legs.

The end of one tentacle was still slightly curled and twitching.

"What's wrong?" the janitor said, looking at his feet, "Tired?" or ...... What did you see that you shouldn't see?"

Chu Qiguang's face changed slightly, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

The gatekeeper said quietly: "Mysterious knowledge is always easy to fascinate and crazy, but sometimes reading too many books will always produce some conjectures and even hallucinations, and at this time it is about to enter the devil." ”

"Enchanted?" Chu Qiguang nodded, but he felt that what he saw was not an illusion, let alone a demon.

Next, Chu Qiguang followed the gatekeeper out of the big library, and asked on the way, "Does the big library be closed every night before midnight?"

The janitor nodded: "It closes every night and opens after noon, you have to come and read a book, don't forget this time." ”

The two of them walked one after the other, and gradually disappeared into the endless darkness.

......

In Chu Qiguang's bedroom, Li Chu, whose face was a little shy, ...... was dragged in by the dark-skinned Zhang Haizhu.

"Come on, come on!" Zhang Haizhu pulled the other party to sit at the desk with a big grin, picked up his notes and said, "Didn't you say that you didn't remember everything in class? ”

Li Chu nodded, thanked him one by one, and quickly opened Zhang Haizhu's notes and copied them.

Seeing the performance of so many geniuses in one day today, Li Chu also felt a lot of pressure.

Because the notes in class were not fully recorded, as soon as he returned to the dormitory, he wanted to borrow other people's notes to copy, and when he met Zhang Haizhu, he was called over.

But after turning a few pages, Li Chucai smiled helplessly and said, "Haizhu, you don't have all my notes." ”

"Huh, huh?" Zhang Haizhu scratched his head embarrassedly.

Jiang Longyu, who was reviewing the lecture notes on the side, sneered when he heard this.

Zhang Haizhu glanced at Jiang Longyu when he heard this, and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Li Chu asked, "Jiang ...... Jiang Gongzi, can you lend me your notes? I didn't memorize them all in class. ”

Jiang Longyu said bluntly: "Don't borrow." ”

Zhang Haizhu said: "You ask him what to borrow, I see that he is almost asleep in class, I remember that I am afraid it is not as much as me." ”

Jiang Longyu laughed, and sighed while looking at the handouts in his hand: "Alas...... This handwritten handout by lecturer Yishuang is good, but there are too many contents, and I can't read it all. ”

"Forget it, I'd better go to the lecturer and tell me about it again. ”

With that, he stood up, put the handout in his hand into his cabinet, and found a large lock to lock it.

"I repeat, if anyone secretly takes my things, don't blame me for reporting directly to the head of the sect and kicking people out. ”
